Hey guys I need some help deciding on who to keep in my fantasy keeper league. Its a 16 team heat-to-head most categories league that counts 1B, 2B, 3B, AVG, CS, HR, SO, R, RBI, SB for hitters and BS, CG, ERA, K, L, S, SHO, W, WHIP...... no salaries to worry about and I have to pick three of the following... I have my mind almost made up but I wanted to get some more input before I make my final decision

Easy

Howard, Wright, Sizemore. The only other guy I'd consider there in a keeper format would be Zimmerman over Wright - I think over the long term that the two will be comparable, but Wright is and will be surrounded by much better talent.

slamdunk

Wright, Howard, Sizemore. And I can't for the life of me think of any reason to take any but those three. Bailey over Wright? I realize this is a prospect site, but that's way offbase.

If no strikeouts aganst hitters

you will be made with Howard, Sizemore, and Wright.

Top 3

Wright, Grady, and RyHo. Guessing those were the 3 you were thinking and just needed confirmation.

better question

the better question is how the hell did you get all of these guys in the first place

oh i don't know

except for Wright none of these guys were going in the first 3 rounds of drafts last year.

If they only keep 3, then Young, Garza, Bailey, and Weaver cost close to nothing last year, Liriano and Zimmerman were available in the middle of the draft, and Kazmir would probably have lasted easily past the first six rounds...

just a guess, and he obviously targeted young talent..before and/or during the season.

hahaha

Actually I got Sizemore at the 8th slot in the draft... got laughed at big time... then wrapped back around for Wright... again laughed at... then picked up howard in the third... Laughed at again.... got liriano in the 13th round... kazmir in the 8th.... and zimmerman in the 19th.... Picked up Bailey, Young, Garza, and Weaver off of waviers.... I was laughed at the entire year unitll i made it to the championship game... but had to laugh when guys went down like flies in the final weeks of the season...

oops...

wouldn't have expected Sizemore or Howard in the top 3, but actually left them off my list entirely...not sure why you were laughed at for the wright or howard picks though, not that early on Howard.

Sizemore that was an impressive reach, but he was available much later than that...

the others went about where I said, and I wasn't criticizing your draft, just observing that you had a lot of players who emerged last year, not guys who had been top 3 round talents for years...
